Iterating through a form's $_POST

[eluser]stevefink[/eluser]
Hi all,

So I have a fairly large form. About 8 text fields, 3 different select boxes, one radio group with two choices, some textareas etc.

Some of these fields are required, some are not. I have my validation working perfectly.

My question is, what technique would you folks use to insert the data that is submitted via $this->input->post to take the validated data and insert it into my respective database table? I'm not sure if I should check for every single potential post value, that could take a lot of code.

If anyone can throw an example here, that'd be awesome.

Thanks!
